Hi everyone,

I am wondering if the lower radiator housing is the same for models 28,25,22,20. I don't have a way to find out other than asking the experts.

If they do fit from another model, does anyone have one for sale?

Thank you guys!

The part number for the Cat 28 lower radiator tank is 2A1156. This particular tank is uniquely specific to the Cat 28 and the later low production R3.

What is wrong with your tank?

I have 3 of these tanks and all 3 are in various stages of cracked. It must have been a weak casting plus lack of antifreeze!
